A popular K-Pop band appears to have made a mix-up by donning retro Rangers tops at a show in Texas.

STAYC were performing in Dallas as part of their US tour.

But instead of wearing local baseball team Texas Ranger's tops, the girl group appeared in 1990s kits worn by Glasgow Rangers.

The six-piece group which has found success in Korea and Japan are currently embarked on their Teenfresh world tour. 

Members Sumin, Sieun, Isa, Seeun, Yoon, and J made their debut in 2020 with the release of their album Star to a Young Culture - which is the group's acronym.

Two of the pop stars were photographed wearing Rangers 1996-97 home shirts at their concert on Thursday. 

That season Rangers won the Scottish Coca Cola Cup after a thrilling 4-3 game at Celtic Park against Hearts. 

Meanwhile, Texas Rangers have reached their first World Series since 2011. They are the oldest Major League Baseball team to never win the world series. 

Despite the mix-up, Glasgow Rangers fans on social media voiced their approval of STAYC's fashion choice, with one fan saying: "Rangers are the kings of K-Pop". 

 

Other celebrities who have been spotted sporting Rangers attire includes boxing legend Mike Tyson, movie star Samuel L Jackson and celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay. 

US rapper Snoop Dogg has also regularly been pictured wearing Celtic kit - while Baywatch star David Hasselhoff rarely misses an opportunity to pull on the kit of another Glasgow club, Partick Thistle. 

But this is not the first time a K-pop band has chosen to don a Glasgow football top. 

In 2018 two members of the nine-piece boy band Stray Kids appeared wearing retro Celtic jerseys in the music video for their song "My Pace". 

STAYC will be appearing at Wembley to perform alongside other K-pop stars for Korea on Stage In London on 8 November. 

 

 

Any of us surprised ?

Just saw this post for the first time - Well done the Korean Lasses. And they look fine in those home shirts which was one of my favourites. I think it was the first time we used a kit for one season - possibly due to switching to Nike in 97-98?? (Negri shirt)
